3 Grand River Hospital s Childbirth Program What you need to know 1. Baby-Friendly Designation Grand River Hospital has achieved a baby-friendly designation. This means that all staff who will be involved in your care have received training to assist you in breastfeeding your baby. Research shows that breastfeeding offers a number of health benefits for both mom and baby. Our staff will be glad to speak with you about breastfeeding and will support you whether you choose to breastfeed or not. 2. Accommodations Information about insurance coverage and room rates can be found on our website at 3. Visiting Guidelines Please ask family and friends to respect visiting hours and guidelines. These have been put in place with feedback from the families who have used our service to provide time for rest and new parent education. Visiting hours are from 12 to 2 pm and 4:30 to 8:30 pm with no visiting during rest period from 2 to 4:30 pm No children other than the baby s siblings may visit on the unit. This helps us to limit the spread of infection and illness to you, your baby and others on the unit. 4. Doctors We have a number of highly trained, respectful physicians who provide support to the childbirth program. Due to scheduling it is not possible to request a specific doctor or select the gender of your doctor. 5. Midwives If you have chosen midwifery care, Grand River Hospital works collaboratively with four community midwifery practices. 6. Students Grand River Hospital supports clinical education for the next generation of health care providers. At times, supervised medical and clinical students may be involved in your care. 7.

11 AFFIX PATIENT LABEL Patient Name: DOB: Gender: OHIP: Phone #: Alternate Phone #: Safety Pledge for Infants and Safe Sleep Practices I understand that the safest place for my baby to sleep is on their back in their crib, cot or isolette. I understand that there is a risk of suffocation, entrapment or falls associated with co-bedding (parent and child sharing the same bed) and that Grand River Hospital does not endorse co-bedding. I will let my nurse know if my baby was dropped or slipped to the floor even if he/she seems okay. I understand that the crib side rails or isolette door must be up and in a locked position when I am not able to give full attention to my baby. I understand that I must be within arm s reach of my infant if the isolette door is open or if the crib side rail is down. I will let my nurse know if I think that I am at risk of falling asleep when holding my baby. I will ask for help if I feel dizzy, weak, or am in severe pain before picking up my baby. I understand that I cannot walk outside of the patient room with my baby in my arms. If I must leave the room, my baby will be transported in a crib, bassinet, car seat, stroller, cot or I will be holding my baby in a wheelchair. I understand that there should not be any items in the crib with my baby (loose blankets, soft toys). I confirm that I have reviewed the safety pledge for infants and safe sleep practices and will share this information with other individuals who may be involved with my infant.

12 Page 1 of 1 Choosing a hospital room after your baby is born The childbirth program of Grand River Hospital s KW Site has three types of patient rooms available: Ward rooms (covered under OHIP); Semi-private rooms ($235 per day); and Private rooms ($275 per day). Many patients have coverage for semi-private and private rooms through their extended health benefits. Please read carefully to make sure you choose the room you d like. During labour and delivery, you ll have a private birthing room at no charge. After you give birth and until you re discharged from hospital, you may move to the room of your choice (depending on availability). If you choose a semi-private or private room, the cost of the preferred room will start one hour after the birth of your baby, even if you remain in your birthing room. Please choose your preferred accommodation on the request section of the pre-admit form. We ve included this form in your pre-admission package. When choosing a preferred room: Please find out your available coverage from your insurance carrier (EG: 100 per cent of the per-day rate, or a lesser amount). The benefit booklet supplied by your employer (or your partner s employer) may provide this information; or Check ( ) ward coverage if you are unsure or can t confirm your insurance coverage to make sure you re not unexpectedly billed. If you have no insurance coverage but choose a private or semi room, the hospital will send you a bill for the room charges by mail after you re discharged. You may also receive a bill for any amount that your insurance won t pay such as a deductible. When you re admitted, you can change your room coverage by completing a new pre-admit form. For example: If you confirm your insurance coverage before you come to the hospital and had earlier selected a ward room, we can upgrade your room after the birth of your child; or If you want to downgrade the room you will stay in after your child is born, we can accommodate you. We will do our best to place you in the type of room you request as it becomes available. Given the high number of births at our hospital (over 4,300 babies every year) this may not always be possible. If you require more information regarding your accommodations, please contact our patient accounts department at extension Thank you. PEM6044 (04/16)
